Here is the code I am running…

1 2 3 4 5 6 |
import cv2 input = cv2.imread('images/input.jpg') cv2.imshow('Hello World', input) cv2.waitKey(0) cv2.destroyAllWindows() |
The code works (albeit differently) when I run the below…
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 |
%matplotlib inline from matplotlib import pyplot as plt import cv2 image = cv2.imread('images/input.jpg') plt.imshow(image) plt.show() |
